“My Mother’s Fig Cake” Recipe from Betty Tarver

“[‘Tis] one of my favorite things my mother, Evelyn, used to make for our family of four in West Columbia, Texas. I was seven years old in 1958 and, partaking along with my two sisters, I can still recall the first taste of this exquisitely moist, spiced fig cake. I wish I had some of her preserves,” remembers Betty Tarver of Marlin, TX.
